“You flip and reach out for a floating rubber duck

And my mind begins to wander for the outcomes of our luck

Precious darling growing massive golden wings

And flying out of this tub and far away from me

Out of the warm water and the washcloth and the rubber duck

And toward the adventures, hidden treasures, and the lessons you’ll be taught

And the precious baby that today holds me tight

Will grow into you a beautiful young lady with courage and might

And for some time in our lives, you will want to fly high and yearn for a different set of arms…”

Listen to the entire poem and be soothed by gentle music.
